And yes, I've watched many of your RC videos and all are amazing! Okay, so I will just start ignoring those inaccurate statements and just keep on working with my girls on your wonderful method :) Thank you!

I guess that answers your question, no? I posted many other videos of dogs doing DW in 3 steps, so I feel absolutely no need to fight with those thinking it's not possible with long-striding dogs :) Well, didn’t you see the video I posted of Bi showing 3, 4 and 5 stride pattern and hitting with all different patterns?

I've been working with both my girls on your RCs and I personally think we're making great progress! My girls are racing fast and have good seperation and it's gotten to the point where I do not even need to be real cautious about a consistent starting distance as they will adjust to make up for it. Both girls seem to have a nice understanding of what I'm asking for and my one girl is finally starting to build some amazing enthusiasm whereas before, when she was confused about the criteria, her drive was beginning to lack. I'm sure we still have a long way to go but I am really happy with the progress we're making currently. I LOVE seeing them adjust/extend their stride so that they hit nicely :) However, I also like to constantly be researching and seeing what others are doing with RCs. On almost all of the online forums, blogs, etc that are discussing different methods of RC training I keep seeing people say that your method is simply about running vs jumping/leaping and just the dogs natural stride- no mention of running deep or adjusting. It is starting to annoy me with how so many people are judging this method without seeming to even have an accurate understanding of it. I keep reading that long-strided dogs can't possibly consistently hit the contacts with this method because their "natural" stride will carry them right over the contact. Does it sound like these people I am writing about just do not fully understand the method? Or have I come up with some strange idea somewhere along the way that it isn't about the dogs natural stride but more so about the dog learning to adjust so that it can come down deeply into the contact no matter where it's striding would have "naturally" taken it?
